Donkeys, like many people, are stubborn creatures.
If you try to push them, they won’t move.
If you try to pull them, they won’t move.
Even if you hit them with a stick, if they have put their mind to it, they still won’t move.
You can’t force them to move, but you can entice them.
An apple, a handful of hay, perhaps a sugar cube might get them going.
A kind word wouldn’t hurt either.
Remember that next time you are looking to persuade someone.
You can’t force them, but you can entice them.
